Title: What are the Depreciation Rates & Rules of Income Tax Act - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Description: According to the Income Tax Act, depreciation is the reduction in an asset's value brought on by use, deterioration, aging, or obsolescence. The Income Tax Act permits an entity's depreciation costs to be subtracted from its taxable income. Since depreciation is a non-cash expense, there is no cash withdrawal from the organization. Rather, it symbolizes the distribution of an asset's cost throughout its useful life. This allocation lowers the entity's taxable income and consequently its tax obligation. – PowerPoint PPT presentation
